Supreme Law - HOME   Supreme Law Crafting Law on the Supreme Court: The Collegial Game by Forrest Maltzman, In Crafting Law on the Supreme Court, Maltzman, Spriggs, and Wahlbeck use material gleaned from internal memos circulated among justices on the U.S. Supreme Court to systematically account for the building of majority opinions. The authors argue that at the heart of this process are justices whose decisions are constrained by the choices made by the other justices. The portrait of the Supreme Court that emerges stands in sharp contrast to the conventional portrait where justices act ...

Noonan, "Narrowing the Nation's Power "is the tale of how a cohesive majority of the Supreme Court has, in the last six years, cut back the power of Congress and enhanced the autonomy of the fifty states. The immunity from suit of the sovereign, Blackstone taught, is necessary to preserve the people's idea that the sovereign is "a superior being." Promoting the common law doctrine of sovereign immunity to constitutional status, ...

The Court's decision in the case of Bush v. Gore effectively stopped a recount of votes in Florida. Many critics felt this decision was politically motivated. If so, what did this say about the ability of the members of the Court to remain non-partisan? And, can justices ...

Few lawmakers could have foreseen how the implementation of that law would change over the years, as the directive to save seemingly insignificant species would extend to the protection of entire ecosystems. As the courts have interpreted the law in the light of a better understanding of science, the ESA increasingly has become a tool used to block development projects and restrict private land use. Shannon Petersen has written a political and legal history of the Endangered Species Act that ...

Assumption Concern Going - ... Why do individuals who have lost their cases decide to appeal? In this book, Scott Barclay offers the most detailed and comprehensive description to date of the motives and concerns underlying an individual's decision to appeal in civil litigation. Most previous research into why people initiate court actions, or appeal court decisions, has argued that they do it because they are results driven: they want to obtain a favorable outcome or, in the case of some appeals, an even more favorable outcome. This "self-interested approach" suggests that courts should create financial and resource barriers to ...

Court Hawaii Land State - HOME   Court Hawaii Land State History of the Lost State of Franklin by Samuel Cole Williams, In the decade following the American Revolution, a bitter political battle developed over the land west of the Appalachian Mountains. Pressure from the federal government resulted in the 1784 cession of the western claims of North Carolina. Shortly afterward, the North Carolina legislature rescinded the cession, but the settlers had already taken action. A new and independent state was declared -- the state of Franklin. A former justice of the Supreme Court of Tennessee, the author goes into extraordinary detail as he documents the history of the ill-fated state. For four years the Franklin government functioned under its own laws, courts, and elected officials. Simultaneously, North Carolina continued to claim sovereignty over the region, enforcing the ...

Constitution and by Law - ... common law and its precedents. Building upon his widely discussed work Marbury v. Madison and Judicial Review, in which he urged the need for greater judicial accountability, Clinton reviews the transformation of legal traditions through the "Marbury Myth" and advocates a jurisprudence that would constrain capricious judicial interpretation by re-establishing traditional methods of legal analysis and rules of precedent. He seeks to ground constitutional theory in common law reasoning, and to ground common law reasoning in a naturalistic jurisprudence -- conceived along Thomistic lines -- that presupposes a transcendent source of legal order in the world. Clinton argues that his proposed reorientation is superior to today's most influential approaches to constitutional interpretation, particularly academic moralism and subjective intentionalism. His account of the doctrine of original intention particularly helps to clarify an issue that has until now received much political attention but little scholarly analysis that is not already associated with these prevailing approaches. God and Man in ...

Separate Legal Entity - ... are sections on malpractice and the rights of institutionalized children. An appendix contains sample forensic reports and a compilation of landmark cases. The authors, one a psychiatrist and developmental researcher, one a legal scholar, pay special attention to the role of the clinician as expert witness in court cases, and to the relationships (too often poor) between mental health professionals, attorneys, and judges. As the authors show, there has been little effective communication between those who study child development and those who make laws to regulate children's welfare. A thicket of technical and ethical problems confronts those child psychiatrists, psychologists, and social workers who, as experts, attempt to make their knowledge available to lawyers and judges. The legal profession, for its part, is too often frustrated in its attempt to interpret research findings and make use of expert testimony. For these professionals, the book provides a clear, jargon-free description of the scientific status of psychology and psychiatry in orderto help them in their interpretation of the research findings and expert testimony. The authors conclude by ...

Louisiana Employment Law - ... rendering explores new methods and areas of research with the aim of integrating Louisiana into the mainstream of American legal history, southern history, and American history in general. Proponents of the New Louisiana Legal History have consistently refused to view law in a vacuum, opting instead for interpretative schemes that mingle social, political, and intellectual history into modes of analysis that treat all things legal as one strand in a complex cultural matrix. The ten essays in this volume -- which address law in the state through the nineteenth century -- exemplify the present condition of the New Louisiana Legal History. Topics range from the impact of the printed word on the evolution of Louisiana law, the economic and civic implications of legal publishing during the territorial and antebellum periods, and the military courts in Union-occupied New Orleans to the consequences of the flurry of emancipation cases in New Orleans in the two years before the Civil War, the use of the courts to attack society's conventions, and the legal status of free people of color inantebellum ...
